Project: Nursery

What was once our computer/extra room, is now transforming into a baby girl's room. I can't even explain how crazy (in a good way) it is to walk by the open door to see a crib standing there. We've had her crib and changing table for about a month now and for the first two weeks I would sit in her room for hours, just staring. I couldn't believe that MY child would be sleeping and playing in that room. My baby, OUR baby, we are going to be parents! This is what I've been dreaming of since I was a young girl, becoming a mother. Most little girls dream of becoming singers, teachers, doctors... I dreamed of being a mother. My world wouldn't feel complete if I never had children, that is why I am so thankful that God gave me this opportunity. Not a day goes by that I don't thank him for this wonderful gift. Every time I feel her move, I am reminded how blessed I am, how blessed we are!

Anyway, I got a little off track, back to the nursery.

Before we started decorating her room, I told my Hubby that I want it to be a beautiful and fun space, but I don't want it to break the bank. I feel that anyone can create an amazing space, perfect for them, without spending a million dollars. Hello: thrift stores, craigslist, yard sales and clearance aisles!

I want to show everyone that it's not only possible, but quite easy to create a beautiful and fun nursery by being a thrifty shopper. Stay tuned for future Project: Nursery posts, with pictures :)

Hope you all are having a wonderful day! It's my lunch time so I'm going to scarf my left-overs then hit up a couple thrift stores, I hope to find some good stuff!
